What is Ayurveda?
The word Ayurveda is made up of two basic terms Ayu and Veda. Ayu means ‘life’ and veda means 'science'. So the literal meaning of Ayurveda is 'science of life'. Ayurveda is the world's oldest recorded healing system used for 5,000 years by many thousands of Vaidyas Ayurveda physicians on millions of patient.
Ayurveda teaches us how to maintain and protect health, how to cure diseases and how to promote longevity. Ayurveda treats man as a whole - which is a combination of body, mind and soul. It focuses on establishing and maintaining balance of the life energies within us, rather than focusing on individual symptoms. It recognizes the unique constitutional differences of all individuals and therefore recommends different regimens for different types of people. Although two people may appear to have the same outward symptoms, their energetic constitutions may be very different and therefore call for very different remedies.
Ayurveda describes three fundamental universal energies, which regulate all natural processes on both the macrocosmic and microcosmic levels. That is, the same energies, which produce effects in the various galaxies and star systems, are operating at the level of the human physiology--in your own physiology. These three universal energies are known as the Tridosha.
What is Ayurvedic Massage?
The skin is the largest organ of our body. It is not merely a sheath covering us, but an organ which affects our health status more than any other organ. The skin is very receptive to therapies applied or massaged on to it. Effects are achieved better and faster. Blood circulation, state of mind, fertility, digestion, sleep, tissue metabolism, immunity and detoxification are some of the functions that can be directly affected by our skin.
Ayurvedic massage is a broad name given to several intricate therapies which involve massaging, rubbing, pooling or pouring of medicated oils, ghee, herbal pastes, rice bolus dipped in milk etc.
Ayurvedic massage helps in balancing all the three doshas- Vata, Pitta and Kapha. It also promotes the flow of life energy or prana through the body.
Regular practice of massage has many health benefits. Please read more about the benefits of individual treatments here.
